Never mind. I decided this was saying
something different than I thought, and is a bug. I have opened bug 297115.

Thanks DJ and Tom. From reading those bugs, this doesn't really sound like
a temporary work around, but just the way it has to work. If that's the
case, is there an enhancement we can request to make that "error message"
a little smarter about these cases, and not flag it as an error? I would
request it, but I have a feeling one of you could actually word it correctly.
:) 

Thanks,

I think this is needed by PDE-BUILD to allow our binary (class folders)
to be used for compilation at build time. (See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=99286
and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=146042)

I still think we will have issues in PDE/BUILD if we remove this entry.

With the new M4-ish Eclipse IDE, there is better checking of build.properties
values. 

One of those "errors" says 

The folder "." does not exist in the workspace

where ever we have 
output..=. 

in our build.properties files. 

But we do still need those output directives there, right? 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Adding_Bundles_to_Orbit#build.properties_entries_and_.classpath_file

I think this was to work around some PDE bug, but I couldn't find reference
to it. 

Anyone know if its still a bug, and we still need the work around? 

I mostly wanted to make sure Orbit committers didn't start removing them,
since after all, Eclipse says its an error! :) 

Unless its ok to remove now?!
